I don't know the recommended way. I can just explain what I do in my own DITA
documents.
In my own DITA documents, I want to use SVG images when I generate PDF, DOCX,
etc, and to use PNG images when I generate HTML, Web Help, etc.
1) I add the same image twice in the DITA topic, one time in SVG format and
another time in PNG format.

<fig frame="all" id="page_areas">
<title>Page areas</title>
<image align="center" href="images/page_areas.svg"
otherprops="svg=yes" width="15cm"/>
<image align="center" href="images/page_areas.png"
otherprops="svg=no"/>
</fig>
---
Also notice the different values for the "otherprops" conditional processing
attribute.
2) I've created these 2 .ditaval files:
svg.ditaval
---
<val>
<prop action="exclude" att="otherprops" val="svg=no"/> </val>
---
no_svg.ditaval
---
<val>
<prop action="exclude" att="otherprops" val="svg=yes"/> </val>
---
3) I generate the PDF as follows:
ditac -filter svg.ditaval out/manual.pdf manual.ditamap
I generate the WebHelp as follows:
ditac -filter no_svg.ditaval -format webhelp5 out/wh/_.html manual.ditamap
